52 Stewart — List of Mosses of North-East of Ireland. 



68. Fissidens bryoideS. Hedw. 



Sides of streams, and shady hedge banks — very common. 1 1-3. 



69. F. INCURVIS. Schwaeg. 7ion Br. and Schimp. 



Very rare. In some plenty on a fallen mass of greensand rock on 

 Black Mountain, near Whiterock, west of Belfast. On damp chalk rocks in 

 Redhall Glen, near Ballycarry (Antrim). — S.A.S. The specimens are in 

 good fruit, and this very minute moss may possibly prove to be the F. pusillus, 

 Wils. , of which I have not seen any specimens. Not found elsewhere in Ireland. 



70. Tayloria serrata. Br. and Schimp. 



Very rare. On the 13th July, 1868, I met with one patch of this rare and 

 interesting moss growing on cow-dung in boggy ground near the summit of 

 Benbradagh Mountain, above Dungiven, Co. Deny. The moss was at that 

 time only commencing to fruit, but one stem having a mature capsule. The 

 only Irish station. 



71. Tetraplodon mnioides. Br. and Schimp. 



Marshy ground on mountains — rare. On the summits of Slieve Donard 

 and Slieve Bingian in the Mourne range (Down). — S.A.S. 6-7. 



72. Splachnum sphozricum. Hedw. 



On decomposing cow-dung on mountain bogs — not rare. Benbradagh 

 (Derry) ; wet heath above Carnlough, Cave Hill, Black Mountain (Antrim) ; 

 abundant on Slieve Croob (Down). — S.A.S. 6-7.
